"This 2019 film is based on the true story of how Gretchen Carlson, played by Nicole Kidman, brought a sexual harassment lawsuit against Roger Ailes, the creator of FOX News. Amidst the backdrop of the 2016 Presidential election, FOX News anchor Megyn Kelly, played by Charlize Theron, finds herself embroiled in controversy after questioning Donald Trump on his misogynistic comments. Margot Robbie plays a fictional character, Kayla Pospisil, that is a composite of several real women that were sexually harassed by Ailes. John Lithgow was nearly unrecognizable as Roger Ailes if not for his notable voice. These women, and others, unite to take down the powerful CEO. They did a good job blending actual news footage with the film's cinematography for authenticity. Good pacing and great performances by all involved. 8.5/10"

"A drama about Gretchen Carlson & Megyn Kelly from Fox News in 2015 taking down Fox head, dirtbag Roger Ailes, for sexual harassment.
Interesting watching this 10 years later and what has changed and not changed in the news/politics today. Charlize Theron literally killed it playing Megyn Kelly. Very impressive!"
